After the arrival of Europeans, American Indians' attitudes toward land use began to shift significantly. Initially, many Indigenous groups viewed land as a communal resource, with practices centered around stewardship and sustainability. However, as Europeans imposed private land ownership and agricultural practices, some tribes were forced to adapt to these new concepts or face dispossession. This shift often led to conflicts over land rights and usage, fundamentally altering their relationship with the land.
